Above Ground Floor Drain. As stated above installing a main drain in an above ground pool on your own may not be the best idea as it takes some doing. 1 drain water directly into the side port of the unit from a run of perforated or unperforated drain tubing 2 link two or more dry well units together or 3 use it independently with a top drain for small pooling areas. If you must run drainpipes across a floor carefully calculate the amount of vertical space available.
A 90 degree brass drain body completes the installation so the drain pipe can be routed without the expense of drain relocation. A much smaller cut out in the slab or floor is needed just for the down pipe pictured below.

If the walls of your pool extend less than 1 foot into the ground you will want to drain off some of the water inside to complete the winterizing process.
